Abstract
A light emitting elements drive control device includes: a detection unit that detects drive voltages and drive currents of a plurality of respective semiconductor light emitting elements arranged in a width direction of a recording medium; a calculation unit that calculates generated heat amounts of the respective semiconductor light emitting elements from heating-raised temperatures of the respective semiconductor light emitting elements determined based on the drive voltages and the drive currents detected by the detection unit, and calculates actual emission light quantities of the semiconductor light emitting elements from differences between the generated heat amounts of the semiconductor light emitting elements and input heat amounts corresponding to powers supplied to the semiconductor light emitting elements, respectively; and a correction unit that corrects differences between the actual emission light quantities of the semiconductor light emitting elements calculated by the calculation unit and required emission light quantities, respectively.
